Australia vs India 1st Test Day 1, Adelaide: After a lot of dilly dally, Rohit Sharma has made the cut in the XI over Hanuma Vihari for the No 6 slot and it seems that has garnered mixed emotions on Twitter. The initial thought was that Rohit will open if picked, but now it seems the thinktank fooled us all. Some felt they were not expecting this to happen, whereas some others felt that it is a good call as Rohit can bat with the tail.

Here is how this call divided Twitter:

Interesting … Rohit sharma over vihari… I would have kept vihari and dropped pant … India look to win their first test series down under … good luck ..

From ‘he can change the game in a session’ to ‘he has been looking good in the nets’ to ‘he can bat well with the tail’, Rohit Sharma has got many ropes…this probably is the last….let’s hope he cashes in#AUSvIND
